Happy Valentine's Day, Dave! I'd love to see your review of the Maono AME2 Interface! I bought one and paired it with the FEELWORLD PM1 (thank you for the suggestion and review) and I'm ecstatic about the overall sound and quality for the price. I'm not an absolute audiophile or anything, but my husband is and has spent hours adjusting my settings on the interface to get it to sound buttery smooth. I look forward to hopefully seeing your review of it!
Not sure this would be the best replacement for it! The evo 4 will give you significantly more clean gain. But this does the job if you have noise repair software. They also have a cheaper audio interface (SC1) that has none of the bells and whistles of this one, but presumably has the same preamps based on the specs.
Was this recorded without eq? If not then rate it on a scale of 1 to 10 without any effects ( referring to am8 ) I cant decide if i should buy fifine am8 or tonor tc30 because i intend on using it without any extra effects cuz dk much abt em
Which would you recommend between the FIFINE Gaming Audio Mixer, Streaming Mixer Microphone Interface vs FIFINE Amplitank SC1 Recording Audio Interface?
Connected via usb, which turns on the light. Cranked the gain of both the mic and headphones all the way down. Attached the mixer/interface via xlr, and chose that as my audio source. :) So the usb just powers the light.
@@milkayway_ Not an upgrade, that’s a crossgrade! Two different mics. A8 is condenser and captures more detail. AM8 is dynamic and picks up background noise less.
As a rule of thumb, we would recommend getting a mixer between $100 to $200 to get the best out of your AT2020, but if you only want to have a proper audio mixer with the XLR input and voice-changers built-in, then it will wok fine.
Yes, it includes the type-c port for mobile devices, but if it's the iPhone with lightning port, then you will need adapters and are better from the Apple store.
Hi Dave I would like to know briefly from you whether the AM8 microphone needs an external audio interface such as SC1 or SC3, is the difference worth paying for the audio interface or is just the USB connector enough? Or is it better to invest the same amount in purchasing a boom arm from Fifine Like fifine bm88 ? And about the USB cable, would you suggest buying another USB cable from UGREEN or Anker 3.0 instead of the one that comes with the microphone?
Hi! The short answer is that usb mode is more than sufficient for most people. But I do have a video coming out next week answering exactly this concern in detail! I test the AM8 in USB mode, with the SC1, with a mic booster, and with the Focusrite Vocaster interface. The video is already available for members if you’re in a hurry. As for the cable, I’ll have to confirm with Fifine if the cable has been updated. You might want to try getting the AM8 first and see if the included cable works. There’s a chance they made silent updates to the included cable.
Hello, i need advice. Can you reply to this as soon as you see this? Can i still use the microphone even without an audio interface? Or an audio interface is really a necessary thing to have?
does this work with bluetooth headphones? I cannot get this mixer to work. I'm using the same mic as you and everything is lit up but my friends say I'm super quiet now and I can't adjust my volume using the mixer. Besides changing the color, none of the buttons change anything either. None of the voicemods work and idk what to do anymore.
question, does your headphone have to be plugged into the fifine SC3 to work with the microphone ? I use a cable-free headphone (corsair virtuoso XT) and i dont want to use it with a cable (i will only use the SC3 and the XLR mic for discord)
I’m getting the mixer while having a am8 bc my usb connection is bad, the cord they gave me didn’t work, I’m using a short cord rn, like if my gain is low now it doesn’t pick up
Great video, well deserved like. A question: can I control 3 volumes of three browsers with this mixer? Example, Microphone, chrome with youtube and firefox with another youtube video? Thank you
What kind of speaker do you use? Assuming it's a pair of active speakers that doesn't need extra power from a pre-amp, then make sure you choose the correct input mode on the speakers.
@@DaveSoltura I need your help one option for me is buy… Fifine am8t and fifine sc3, another option is buy fifine k688 and sc3 or fifine k688- or am8 with goxlrmini who recommend☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️
It’s very likely preamp noise from two sources: noise from the mic preamp, and noise from the headphone preamp. I listen on clean headphone preamps and the mic noise isn’t horrible. The headphone amps being noisy may exaggerate it. But yes, some noise is perfectly normal at this price point.
@@DaveSoltura thanks for responding and I didn’t mean that comment with any hate I just noticed the different pronunciation and I’ll definitely be picking one of these audio mixers up.
Hello! I understand how you feel. I felt the same way! Fifine told me this is how they wanted their brand name pronounced. Why it’s pronounced that way is beyond me!😁
Did you ever experience the SC3 almost like freezing for 5 seconds and in that time making an earrape pinging noise from my microphone to my friends in discord while not seing any sound to my headphone in that timeframe?
What mic would you use with the Fifine SC3? 😃
Can you make a video with the fifine k688 connected with the fifine sc 3?

I bought SC3 + AM8 yesterday, now looking for some guides

Thank you so much for reviewing our Fifine SC3!
GYATT damn girl, I just had to tell you that you FI FINEEE. My goodness.

Once again, a really complete review ! Thank you it was all clear ! :)
Fantastic. Don't think I've ever laughed during a review. Great channel.
I always end up on your videos with my budget. i appreciate your reviews, They're very helpful to me. Thank You. You definitely earned a sup from me. 👍👍👍
Thank you so much for the support! Glad the content helps!
Finally, I've been waiting for this review!
Hope it meets your needs!
I have the AM8 and SC3 in white and I’m absolutely loving them!!
Hello, how it holding up now
This review convinced me to buy the bundle that comes with the am8 and the sc3 will be here Monday I’m very excited😊
Your video helped me set up my audio setup. Thanks a bunch!
Glad I could help!
Happy Valentine's Day, Dave!
I'd love to see your review of the Maono AME2 Interface!
I bought one and paired it with the FEELWORLD PM1 (thank you for the suggestion and review) and I'm ecstatic about the overall sound and quality for the price.
I'm not an absolute audiophile or anything, but my husband is and has spent hours adjusting my settings on the interface to get it to sound buttery smooth.

love the finefines
Thank's bro, you've convinced me to buy the AM8
"HayYyyYy, HayyYyy, HayyY, hyayyyYyy" 🔥🔥
Bro was cooking with that one!
So glad to see the Fifine AM8 get more love. It's a fantastic affordable dynamic mic.
man the fifine mic and mixer is fine as heck
You absolutely do not have to rerecord the sounds every time you boot up. It saves the sound clips and the light setting you put it on.
I'd love for you to try other comparably priced mixers to see how it stacks up
Great video idea!
The SC3 has an internal storage but you can only record voices up to 15 Seconds and then when you reboot it, it saves until it breaks
In my ears, the XLR sounded louder and clearer, but that could have just been the audio levels not matching with the one in the USB mode
I thought you had millions of subscribers how do you only have 3k that should be impossible
Thanks for the kind words! I realize I don’t often ask people to subscribe. I should do that. 😁
Probably
Thank you for the review.
could u share w us the filters u r using ?
Hey Dave, can this interface go well with k688 audio quality
I got the Am8 bundle kit for $47
What a steal!
My audient evo 4 finally gave out - thinking of getting this as a replacement to use as an audio interface / mixer.
Not sure this would be the best replacement for it! The evo 4 will give you significantly more clean gain. But this does the job if you have noise repair software. They also have a cheaper audio interface (SC1) that has none of the bells and whistles of this one, but presumably has the same preamps based on the specs.

What and how are you hooked to your camera?
My only problem is the loud shhhhhhhhhh noise in the background of all of my videos
use noice suppression with equ apo
I THOUGHT THAT WAS FROM IT PICKING UP MY ONCE LOUD ASS PC!!😯😯
when gaming can you still use the xlr mic dor chat and have your headset for game sound?
@@ChazDaGreat94 is you headset wired or wireless?

Which would you recommend between the FIFINE Gaming Audio Mixer, Streaming Mixer Microphone Interface vs FIFINE Amplitank SC1 Recording Audio Interface?
I'm considering getting the fine mic and mixer for my streams as entry level audio upgrade. Are they plug and play on Mac?
Hey, Great vid! I was wondering if the quality of the k688 would be improved when using the sc3.
My conclusion for the AM8 would apply to the K688, as well. :)
Hello sir! Any tutorial on how to make Am8 mic sound like yours? 😢
What headphones you using please
Great video! I had a question how did you get your rgb to work on the am8 when connected with xlr to the mixer board?
Connected via usb, which turns on the light. Cranked the gain of both the mic and headphones all the way down. Attached the mixer/interface via xlr, and chose that as my audio source. :) So the usb just powers the light.
Hi! When you connect your headphones to the mixer, do you hear a noise?
I really want to know if I can use a wireless headset(2.4) in combination with this deck.
If I’m buying fifine sc3 can I use my hyper x quadcast or I should buy fifine mic?
As long as it’s an XLR mic, it’ll work with the Fifine.
Seems like it’s a USB mic though, since you’ll need a hyper x procast
Hi! I have the Fifine A8! Is it good if I upgrade to Fifine AM8? Thanks!
@@milkayway_ Not an upgrade, that’s a crossgrade! Two different mics. A8 is condenser and captures more detail. AM8 is dynamic and picks up background noise less.
how do you test and listen to ur voice?
This guy only reply to people who thanked him for the review he's stink
how do you feel about this mixer with the AT2020?
As a rule of thumb, we would recommend getting a mixer between $100 to $200 to get the best out of your AT2020, but if you only want to have a proper audio mixer with the XLR input and voice-changers built-in, then it will wok fine.
@davesoltura. I do not intend to record with a computer but just my Iphone. Will I still be able to use tis XLR?
Yes, it includes the type-c port for mobile devices, but if it's the iPhone with lightning port, then you will need adapters and are better from the Apple store.
I've never really understood interfaces, Plugging your headphones into it is only optional right? Like in case you just want to listen to yourself?
@@theholypeanut473 Yes! Completely optional.
How does it compare to Maonocaster C2 Neo?
This is the next video we’re posting, stay tuned!
Wanted to ask Dave are you using a ZV-E1 for your overhead shots?
Just an E10, not an E1 :)
So why shouldn’t you use the 48V with the AM8?
Dynamic mics don’t need it
What will happen if we connect line out to a phone? What is that for?
Question how can i use this just for the mic part of it??? what do i plug into what etc???
why theres no power fifine mic when i put already in s3?
W Review
Could it be connect with sound card to make better sound quality for live steam? Or itself can used for live steam? Please advise. Thanks 🙏
The AM8 on its own will be fine!

Am8 doesn't need an interface!
@@DaveSoltura THANK YOU! I'll order this rn
hello which XRL cable should you buy?
Any 3-pin XLR male-to-female cable is just fine.

You can probably do playback, but not listen to your voice in real time.
Can you please do a video with this on how to setup for obs because I can’t hear anything it’s my first time please help me
does it come with the xlr cable or will i have to buy it
Sorry no, only the mixer itself.
would this send game and mic audio from my desktop into a laptop for dual pc streaming?? via line in/out. My laptop only has one aux port
Witch best audio software for voice recorder
can you use this fifine to take phone calls and which port would it go to?
Thanks for asking! I’ll try to find out!
How do I get the voices to work?
Just press the voice-changers button to enable it, when the button turns white, it takes effect.
Please review Teyun - Q24. Thank you

Can I connect ASTRO A40 to this the mixer?
I’m getting the mixer while having a am8 bc my usb connection is bad, the cord they gave me didn’t work, I’m using a short cord rn, like if my gain is low now it doesn’t pick up
Great video, well deserved like. A question: can I control 3 volumes of three browsers with this mixer? Example, Microphone, chrome with youtube and firefox with another youtube video? Thank you
To my knowledge, I don’t think you can. It’s really meant for the effects.
I connected the speakers to the line out but nothing comes out, do you think it's a problem with the mixer?
What kind of speaker do you use? Assuming it's a pair of active speakers that doesn't need extra power from a pre-amp, then make sure you choose the correct input mode on the speakers.
How is this product? Oh it's finefine
maybe fifine k688 with goxlr mini is good option for the best sound?????
The GoXLR mini is still on another level. :)
@@DaveSoltura now the goxlr mini is good option?? a lot of people are selling the products of goxlr and i can buy one goxlr mini 100$

Does it come with xlr cable
Sorry no, only include the USB type-a combo type-c cable for connecting it to computers.
Not sold on why anyone would need this with a hybrid microphone. It's a space occupier on the desk, if nothing else.
That’s a valid take!
mine only came with a trs to trs cable and the usb
Fifine SC3 and Fifine k688
Nice combo!
Witch best audio interface for fifine k688
My conclusion for this video applies to the K688 as well :)
my SC3 seems to produce ALOT of static noises when paired with my K688... I don't know if it's a quality control thing, but its disapointing so far...
It’s very likely preamp noise from two sources: noise from the mic preamp, and noise from the headphone preamp. I listen on clean headphone preamps and the mic noise isn’t horrible. The headphone amps being noisy may exaggerate it. But yes, some noise is perfectly normal at this price point.

If my headset has a mic I can't use the XLR input?
No, you can plug your headset to the headphones port and the xlr mic to the xlr port and you’re good to go👍🏼😁

I feel you! That’s how I felt at first. It turns out that’s actually the official way to pronounce it, according to their company.

@@The_Gorilla_Union No harm done! Hope you enjoy the SC3. It’s incredible for its price point.
